They Said That

CONCEDING DEFEAT
“I would say that the sport is now officially the UFC, which has been their plan and strategy all along. Good for them for achieving it.”– Strikeforce commentator Frank Shamrock to Sherdog.com’s The Savage Dog Show.

ONE MAGIC LOOGIE
“I was out of order. As a father, as a mixed martial artist, or possibly even as a role model, it’s not a way I should be behaving. It’s not how a mixed martial artist should be acting – not how any man should be acting.”– UFC middleweight contender Michael Bisping to The Telegraph on spitting at Jorge Rivera’s corner after his win at UFC 127

MILLER TIME
“That’s seven in a row in arguably the toughest division in the UFC. I’m ready for a title shot. I come in here and fight my heart out.”– UFC Lightweight Jim Miller following his UFC 128 victory over Kamal Shalorus.

WONDERFUL OUTLOOK
“I don’t think being a champion in wrestling will make me a champion in mixed martial arts. I think success is determined by the person.”– UFC light heavyweight Phil Davis to bleacherreport.com

TWISTED MUNCHIES
“When Korean Zombie pulled off the twister and said he’d learned it from my YouTube videos, man, I was on cloud nine that night. I ate six chocolate chip cookies with milk that night as I sat there reading all my Twitters. I thought, you know what? I’m celebrating. So I went to Subway and got six chocolate chip cookies.”– Eddie Bravo to MMAFighting’s Ben Fowlkes on Chan Sung Jung’s use of the Twister at UFC 128.
